Received the cinnamon clownfish in good condition. It’s active and colorful. I’ve kept it in a 30-gallon tank with some corals, and it hasn’t damaged any of them. The fish is quite bold, so I made sure to keep it alone to avoid conflicts. It’s a striking addition to the tank.

The fish arrived quickly and looked healthy. It’s vibrant and has been very active since setup. I’m happy with the size and color. I’ve read that it can be aggressive, and I’ve kept it in a tank with no other fish to avoid issues. It’s a great choice for a beginner with a reef setup.

The fish is colorful and lively, but it’s more aggressive than expected. I had to keep it in a separate tank initially. I’m still learning how to manage its behavior. Would recommend with caution and proper tank size.
